Depends on what things you think are likely to be true in secret or judicially determined in the future without an intervening legislative change. My impression of the law in most Western countries is that the courts would overturn any requirement to compel a company to affirmatively lie to the public through explicit speech of some kind, even in the national security context. Orders compelling silence or non-removal of past statements are a very different constitutional and human rights balance than compelled false speech.
They aren't guesses. Those charts are reflecting oxygen isotope ratios (which are measured directly), among countless others (which are covered in Hasen et al)

Oxygen isotope ratios are more or less ^16O and ^18O. These isotopes are distributed differently based on temperature and precipitation patterns, which can be recorded in ice cores, ocean sediments, lake sediments, and even in the shells of marine organisms. ^16O is more often seen in 'warmer' events, vs ^18O
And actually, that's exactly what most of us remainers pointed out was going to happen, because tories can't resist reducing standards of living, working protections, or consumer rights.
Police are what shows up when labor strikes. They’re part of the government, not a part of the collective “labor” that is the rest of the working world. As an example, police are part of an association but not a union. They aren’t legally allowed to strike anywhere in the US. They serve the interests of capitalism, which is the other side of the coin of workers’ rights
Like I said...popular view. However, I have many friends that are quite pro-union, and the reality seems different.
To say the least. It's a bit unfortunate that there is about 0 culture in the EU regarding moonshot projects compared to silicon valley. I've tried to get money a couple of times from government grants for (yet another..) foundational AI model, neuroscience inspired, but the grants instead seem to almost exclusively go to well developed industrial companies that now wants some free money to "leverage" ChatGPT in their existing internal processes.. and being still in the research phase, the more risk-averse VCs here are not touching stuff like this either.

So I guess what's left is doing these grand proclamations that you are going to "knock the crown off OpenAI" etc. Though, some sort of vision is good to have for sure :)
Not only did these techniques save me money, but they also saved me a considerable amount of time. I've employed these same strategies at work and private to navigate away from requests and projects in which I have no interest.
Thanks! I'm not 100% sure about this, still hearing feedback from people on both ends. Some reasons for the switch would be:

1. File versioning

2. Easier self-hosted syncing

3. Better data portability (although we already support exporting to .txt)

I would love to hear counterpoints. Currently, SQLite works pretty well, and our custom database is pretty simple (plus, our database code is also open source[1]).

I don't see how any of that means that C# is less open. Microsoft drives C# feature evolution from community feedback, so is that less open than a consortium of commercial interests?

Does Microsoft somehow prevent anyone from developing a CLR implementation for CPUs they don't support? The only reason the JVM is everywhere is because they had first-mover advantage.

How does Microsoft developing their own solution to a problem "kill" FOSS efforts, exactly? Microsoft's solutions are almost all also FOSS. Is competition some kind of inherent problem? Or is a large corporation creating and maintaining FOSS a problem? Why aren't you annoyed at those enterprises that started adopting the original FOSS projects, but didn't contribute dev time to maintaining them? Instead you're annoyed at Microsoft for creating its own FOSS and paying to maintain it for the community for free.

I just find most objections to .NET so bizarre, it's almost always knee-jerk Microsoft hate.
I think that is a good enough point to be worth trying to counter it.

The modern app environment (especially mobile) leans heavily on app scoped permissions, and sometimes even app session level permissions. Has anyone tried a component system that attempts component instance level permissions? (And maybe time gated ones at that).
Apple will also introduce the "Pro" line of their M4 chips later in the year and I expect that they will improve the Neural Engine further.
And controlled by megacorps and governments.

Wasnt there a whole genre of scifi warning us about this?
well what are the real pros and cons of anarchist? is it good for the society?
If you build your whole app with it, yeah. If you use it tactically for a certain data type it can be very nice. Just don't try to dissimulate it's specialness.
Sooooo you do know that a small % of people create most co2 right?

Just because some people can't afford a new car every x years or can fly around 2 3 or 5 times a year, our society will not starve to death.

There are plenty of people who have holiday houses and other shit they don't need. If we make it less attractive for the rich to work, the rich will stop working and the others get a chance.
The movement that gave rise to the term is hardly relevant for who uses it today. Labor union means "employee organization". Do the police call their union "union" but not "labor union"? That's just a language thing then (The two terms aren't separated in my language - I always assumed that in English "union" was short for "labor union")
Why would anyone care about what this trash company is doing? And honestly, just now getting around to HTTP/2 shows how behind it is as a platform.

You would have to be a moron (or locked into the SF ecosystem, so same thing?) to use Heroku at this point. If the free-tier rug pull wasn’t enough, the fact they haven’t innovated (or even kept up) in many years should disqualify them as a serious platform.

There could be as much as there couldn't be one. Betting on a black swan event like a yet unborn baby that will become the Tesla/Edison/Newton/Einstein/Mozart of climate engineering to solve an issue that will destroy the fabric of modern society while taking a lot of Earth's life in the process is just stupid.

Wishful thinking won't take us anywhere, we need to work with the reality we have right now not with extraordinary potential saviours might provide if they ever exist...
I guess those are the things I find unusual about the article. They think they've figured out "why kids don't read", but all they've discovered is "we're not making as much money as we'd like", and maybe this demographic is a problem because "THE LUCRATIVE TEENAGE MARKET" could falter in a few years.

I'm not sure that 9-year-olds care about "Good Art", they just care about the things they're exposed to - and there's plenty out there they _could_ be exposed to. Once they're exposed to enough to develop taste, they start caring about Good Art -- or at least art they enjoy more than others.

They didn't talk to any 9-year-olds, or even their parents. Why aren't they asking parents what books they're exposing their kids to? ([1] One possible reason, I know this is a controversial/poorly sourced topic though).

> Or, as O’Sullivan asked, “Is this generation just iPad babies?”

I mean, it's a boring answer. But seems more likely to me than "These kids can name over 500 Pokemon on cue but don't read a thing because not enough of them are on TikTok yet, we haven't managed to scout the next Harry Potter, and our 9-year-old reading curriculum is far too intense which is ruining the joy for them."

Tbf it's a fairly obvious idea when looking at the compiler output for a large switch-case statement.
Originally libertarians were anarchists, and they were roughly synonyms. And in many parts of Europe still are.

In USA these terms were co-opted by right wing to come up with anarchocapitalism and right-libertarianism.
Sounds like X11 needs its own equivalent of LibreSSL, but it looks like the will is there (many supporters of X continuation), but not the manpower.

In days of yore (when Windows 3 was young), there were even commercial X servers (Hummingbird I think it was), so there's plenty of other people implemented the protocol.

> Engineers use MacBook pros because it’s the best built laptop, the best screen, arguably the best OS and most importantly - they’re not the ones paying for them.

I am the one paying for my MacBook Pro, because my company is a self-funded business. I run my entire business on this machine and I love it. I always buy the fastest CPU possible, although I don't max out the RAM and SSD.

Amusingly enough, I talked to someone recently about compilation speeds and that person asked my why I don't compile my software (Clojure and ClojureScript) on "powerful cloud servers". Well, according to Geekbench, which always correlates very well with my compilation speeds, there are very few CPUs out there that can beat my M3 Max, and those aren't easily rentable as bare-metal cloud servers. Any virtual server will be slower.

So please, don't repeat the "MacBooks are for spoiled people who don't have to pay for them" trope. There are people for whom this is simply the best machine for the job at hand.

Incidentally, I checked my financials: a 16" MBP with M3 and 64GB RAM, amortized over 18 months (very short!) comes out to around $150/month. That is not expensive at all for your main development machine that you run your business on!

> The basic building blocks of software are not objects or functions, but rather services that can be relocated and replicated as needed.

No? Most software I use is a single service (in a sense that it's compiled to a single executable).
So they have a union, which is not a labor union? fair enough. It seems like a distinction without a difference for the topic.

Some restrictions on strikes usually covers lots of different jobs (e.g. nurses).

This whole thing is a misunderstanding of how the US system works. None of this is a legislative function, it is a determination by a rule making body. While I agree that the courts are often overworked and we need to vastly expand the number of judges to make sure cases are heard on time, this isn't the root of the reason the functions of the NLRB or the SEC aren't handled by the judiciary. It's that they're simply not judicial.

Instead, congress has designated some rule making authority to a group of experts, this group of experts is an executive body doing executive work, so it's normally under the executive branch. This body makes rules that have to follow any laws set down by congress, which is one check, and the courts can settle disputes between someone who has to follow the rules and the rule making body, or congress and the rule making body, etc. which is another check.
The rule making body makes the initial determination on whether it's rules have been followed not because they're taking on some function of the judicial, but because they're the experts who know what their own rules mean. If they get it wrong, willfully abuse that power, etc. the judicial is still there. It's separation of powers all the way down. If you removed them from the executive and put them in the judicial you'd be giving some judge rule making authority and the ability to interpret those rules later. The whole point is to separate that between two branches of government.

It seems likely that 2023 is going to be the highest CO2 emissions ever. If not 2023, 2024 definitely will be. We're pretty much at the point where CO2 emissions are dropping. We have a long way to go, but don't lose hope, we are making progress.
Interesting—I had seen several different regex libraries for the JVM, but not this one.
Apple devices also work quite seamless together.
IPads for example work great as a second screen wirelessly with the MBPs. I'd immediately buy a 14 inch ipad just for that, since that is so useful when not on your standard desk.
Also copy paste between devices or headphones just work...

in case Apple would come up with the idea to take an ipad as external compute unit that would be amazing... just double your ram, compute and screen with it in such a lightweight form factor... should be possible if they want

C++ managed to get market share from C by being both as low level and higher level. It is true that it hasn't happened again since, as other higher level languages took market share from C++ for applications, but didn't replace it for lower level stuff. Still is conceivable that another language might do to C++ what it did to C.

Graber was an anarchist and a leftist. For example, quoting from https://davidgraeber.org/articles/is-your-job-bullshit-on-ca...

> I’ve been working with people who’ve become big advocates for a universal basic income. It’s not the only solution, but it conforms with my political instincts. People think that is odd because I’m an anarchist. Why would I want a policy where the government would just give people money? Isn’t that giving power to the government? I say, no.

> A basic income would be the perfect leftist antibureaucratic policy. It would not only reduce the number of bureaucrats, but it would get rid of the worst of them, the annoying ones who decide whether you’re really poor enough to deserve this, or whether you’re really married to that person or whether you really live in that room.

He thought there were multiple ways people considered themselves on the left. For example, from https://davidgraeber.org/articles/from-managerial-feudalism-... :

> The conclusion that I came to is that essentially, the left is applying an outdated paradigm: they’re still thinking in terms of bosses and workers in a kind of old-fashioned industrial sense, when what’s really going on is that for most people the key class opposition is caregivers versus managers. Leftist parties are trying to represent both sides at the same time, but they’re really dominated by the latter.

and that "mainstream left" wasn't barely on the left. From https://davidgraeber.org/interviews/i-found-myself-turning-i... :

> Because, in a way, the left began against bureaucratization of life. It’s about freedom. The mainstream left, which is barely left at all at this point in traditional terms … has really embraced a combination of market and bureaucracy, an equal synthesis of the worst aspects of capitalism and the worst aspects of bureaucracy.

Or they won't and it might take a long time for societies to recover from the costs that climate change is bringing.

Societies having to spend more in dealing with effects from climate change have to spend less in other stuff that are investments, stuff like education, R&D, healthcare, transportation; to build dikes, pumping stations, purchasing ever increasing food products after crop failures, rebuilding cities destroyed by climatic events (or moving whole cities/population centres that aren't possible to be rebuilt nor protected), building border defences to stop millions of climate refugees from immigrating to dwindling inhabitable spaces. All of that will have massive costs that will make life much harder for future generations.

We don't know what our children futures will be because as humanity we never been through a truly global catastrophe affecting every single corner of the planet at the same time, not even World Wars were any close to the potential destructive power that fucking up our climate is.
A commons is indeed vulnerable to collapse though bad management. So it won't take care of itself, but needs deliberate effort and coordination to maintain. If we want to keep the open web, can't we put the necessary work in?

One challenge for web-enjoyers is it's not obvious in a consensus-making way where 'weak points' that need help are, and what's an acceptable loss (say: video on the web. We can post raw video on a webhost. It's expensive, so no one does. And most video content is crap, so who cares - let the platforms have that?)
I'm struggling with what you meant by "it's just a language thing", that is of course true and what I was pointing out. For the purpose of good communication, everything is a language thing and language things are important.

When we say "the police union isn't a labor union", we're people rejecting them from the classification even though they use the word because we don't think they fit in with our values. That's because we have labor (movement) values. You could also talk about any group of employees getting together and acting towards a common goal and call that a union, or a labor union, that wouldn't mean that everyone else automatically means the same thing. In this case, the poster didn't mean that.
We take photos of our kids to track and timestamp anaphylaxis or other medical reasons. Incredibly important at the time, and then when dynamic wallpapers start mixing them in to the roster you desperately want to forget them.
The current global situation is consistent with the lead up to a World War II style event. The future is never guaranteed so hopefully it isn't that consistent and doesn't spiral any further out of control. We didn't need any climate change to get us to this point as a combination of bad policy, lousy diplomacy and the COVID insanity seems to have done it.

These risks exist independently of climate change and, frankly, the link the climate people make between crop pressure and these wars is tenuous. There'll be some bad years as farmers adapt. If the scientists are worth the money we spend on them that might be averted.

> When you have economic decline...

I don't think there is any strong reason to suspect that climate change will cause economic conditions to decline. Glancing at Wikipedia, there are figures suggesting that global GDP will be down 30% from baseline by 2100, which assuming 1% real growth rates globally would still leave us better off than we are now.

Even though that sort of model is notoriously delicate.
My opinion is that there isn't anybody else providing the numbers because it's impossible to get a correct number. Suppose Google homepage runs PHP, google.com/a uses Go, google.com/b uses Django, netflix.com use a custom framework running on Node.js, and facebook.com uses an unknown framework. W3 will happily tell you that the entire google.com is powered by php, fail to attribute netflix to JavaScript, and won't count facebook.com at all. That's exactly what's happening with their methodology. They only attribute each website at most once and rely on decade old hints from headers and error pages that are often non existent on newer/in-house web frameworks these days.

Want a real example? Everybody knows that Instagram runs Python. But https://w3techs.com/sites/info/instagram.com can't tell which server side language it runs. There you have it.

I would not use the number unless it can be validated, rather than use it simply because it's "the best we have". No, it's not even remotely good.
>A language with the learning curve of Python, near C performance and strong safety guarantees of Rust.

Sounds like Go or Zig, though Go is slightly less safe and slower - in turn being much easier.

Though I'd reach for Go first if I'm working with anything concurrent. Concurrency is hard, and Go really helps with getting it right.

This "too late" narrative is dangerous. Climate change is not a binary, we can choose what the maximum temperature will be, and the higher, the worse. It appears that each degree is increasingly bad. The change from 4 to 5 degrees of warming will cause far more damage than the rise from 3 to 4.

Yes, stopping at 1.5 is now impossible. But stopping at 2 isn't impossible and stopping at 3 is realistic. Stopping at 5 will be catastrophic. Let's not do that.
